SUMMARY:Marion County Country Ham Days Hay Bale Toss
DESCRIPTION:Visit HERE for more festival info and a full schedule of events
 !  \n\nWho gets bragging rights in this big event?\nThe Marion County Coun
 try Ham Days Hay Bale Toss is set to begin at noon on Sunday\, Sept. 27. I
 t’ll take place\, as usual\, in front of the Lebanon Post Office.\nThis 
 year the boisterous tradition of who earns bragging rights is maintained\,
  but there’s added emphasis on bringing new participants into the fold.\
 n\nDarrell McCauley\, a three-time hay bale toss champion and one of the s
 ponsors of the event\, described the three divisions of competition.\nThe 
 9-year-old and younger division will throw straw bales he weaves that weig
 ht about five pounds. The 10- to 15-year-old division will pitch bales he 
 makes that weight 25 to 30 pounds. The upper division straw bales weight u
 p to 50 pounds. Boys and girls\, men and women\, will compete separately.\
 n\nThere is no preregistration necessary\; show up and sign up and compete
  on the day of the event.\n\nAnd this year\, for the first time in a while
 \, THE LEGENDS will be there together to try and reclaim their Greek warri
 or-like glory. McCauley\, Jake Akers and Steve Farmer won 15 titles in 15 
 straight years. Their social media antics portraying themselves as protago
 nists (they’re actually close friends) are a highlight in a buildup to t
 he event. But not one of THE LEGENDS has won in the past two years. Meanwh
 ile\, upcoming contenders post social media video challenges with glisteni
 ng muscles as they pump iron. It all gathers hundreds of clicks in a build
 up that culminates on Sept. 27.\n\nThe colorful duo of Jeremy Bowman and J
 im Reed\, of 2 Shots on a Barrel podcast\, will be there to MC the event. 
 And gng On Demand will live-stream the Hay Bale Toss\, as well as the enti
 re weekend of Ham Days.
